[24 November]
They simply had too much food. Ayako finally arrived at this conclusion after taking a close look at the assorted containers of food that was neatly arranged on the table. She had expected more modest contributions of food from the rest. For example, she did not expect the Akagi siblings to turn up with such a huge tub of spicy chicken. Akagi & his sister had brought at least sixty chicken wings. Perhaps it would have been better if those two latecomers had turned up empty-handed. If they had come with nothing, she could put the pair in charge of cleaning up. Ayako was about to ask Sakuragi if he had really helped Rukawa when Mitsui stepped in front of her to face the red head.

Hisashi "Hmmm" examines the boy's face "No bruises?"
Hanamichi "What bruises?!" takes a step backwards "Micchy???"
{What are you talking about?}
Ryota "Mmmm" stares up at Rukawa's face "No plasters?"
Kaede "Plasters???" blinks
{What are the two of you up to?}
Hisashi "Are you wearing make-up? Cover stick? Foundation?" rubs Sakuragi's cheek with a piece of tissue
Hanamichi "OUCH! Stop rubbing my face!!!" covers cheeks with hands "I do not need girl stuff to look good"
{My cheeks hurt ...}
Ryota "Rukawa" points at a spot on the bench "Sit down"

What was next? Rukawa stared at Miyagi curiously. Blue eyes widened when the shorter boy started asking questions. Was there any fighting between Sakuragi & him in the last couple of hours? Who won the fight? Did he have any injuries? Then the second year student tried to roll up the sleeves of his junior's long-sleeved shirt to check for bruises. This was ridiculous! Rukawa stood up quickly. Then Miyagi did something that was even more absurd. Ayako stared as her supposed suitor tried to peek underneath Rukawa's sweater. What was the pervert trying to do?

WHACK! WHACK!!! ... WHACK! WHACK!!!

Ryota "OWWW!" looks at her tearfully "Aya-chan ... you do not love me anymore?"
Ayako "What?" blinks "Love you?"
Ryota "........." sniffs
Ayako "I ..." thinks
Ryota "Waaaaaaaaa ........." cries

Ayako grumbled as she hauled the wailing boy into the house. The rest of the people stared at each other. Someone voiced his thoughts. Now what? Would they have to wait for those two to reappear before starting the barbecue? How long would they be gone? After some consideration, Akagi declared that he was going to start cooking for he was starving. Kogure nodded in agreement. He picked up several sticks of garlic chicken & placed them on the second grill. The air was soon filled with delicious aromas of cooking meat.

Kiminobu "The garlic chicken smells good" smiles
Hanamichi "Of course!" crows triumphantly "They were made by a genius! Bwahahaha!"
Yuki "Kogure-sempai is right" sniffs at the sizzling kebabs "They smell wonderful"
Kaede "........." eyes the red head
{I did most of the work ...}
Yuki "I hear that you like sausages" places a couple of hotdogs on a plate
Hanamichi "Oooh yes ..." smacks his lips hungrily
Yuki "Good ..." gives Sakuragi the plate of sausages "For you"
Hanamichi "Oooo! Yummy!" nibbles

Seeing that the table was already quite crowded, Sakuragi decided to sit on the steps of the wooden cabin. Just as he was about to start eating, he saw a pair of hands holding onto a plate of spicy chicken wings. Haruko was standing in front of him. She smiled & asked if she could sit with him. Needless to say, the red head nodded. The girl's brother sighed as he watched the interaction between Sakuragi & his sister.

Kaede "Do'aho" eyes Sakuragi
{What are the two of you talking about?}
Hanamichi "How dare you insult me?" glares at the blue-eyed boy balefully
Kaede "Move over" kicks the red head's feet lightly
{You will smile at anyone who offers food to you}
Hanamichi "KITSUNE!!!" jumps off the steps to confront Rukawa "How dare you kick me?!"
Kaede "........." moves to sit down in the red head's place on the steps
{I will KICK you ... if you do not stop smiling at her}
Haruko "........." wonders why Rukawa wants to sit beside her "Some chicken wings?"
Kaede "Thank you" nods
{I know that you like him ... but he belongs to me}
Hanamichi "ARRR!!!" fumes "KITSUNEEE!!!"

Kogure moved quickly to prevent bloodshed. Somehow the bespectacled boy managed to calm the seething red head with a few pats on the back, a plate of steaming hot prawns & a can of cold beer. Akagi thanked his friend silently as he studied the small gathering of people at the entrance of the cabin. At times, he found it difficult to understand the blue-eyed boy. He was quite sure that Rukawa had intentionally disturbed the red head. But what was the reason behind his actions? What had the boy been thinking about?

The approach of a pretty female attracted his attention. The lady smiled at him & walked up to Yuki. She said that she was sorry for having taken one of his bags by mistake. He told her that no harm was done. Then the boy explained to the rest that one of his parcels got mixed up with her stuff when he had collided with the woman in the parking area. Some of the boys stared at the woman with unabashed admiration in their eyes. At Amalia's request, he introduced her everyone. Then he invited her to have something to eat before leaving.

Amalia "This is great!" waves a stick of kebab "Did you get this from the caterers?"
Yuki "Nah! Sakuragi made it" pats the red head
{Oh yeah ... flattery works all the time}
Hanamichi "Bwahahaha!" sings a modified version of his Tensai song by adding the word 'Chef' to the lyrics
Amalia "........." sweatdrops
Yuki "Pssst!" hisses at the woman
{Will you please pay attention to the plan?!}
Amalia "........." blinks "Oh ... Sakuragi, do you like ice-cream & cake?"
Hanamichi "Ice-cream? Cake?" beams "YES! YES! YES!"
Amalia "Do you want to trade some sticks of this delicious garlic chicken for some ice-cream & cake?" smiles
Hanamichi "Okay!" agrees
Amalia "Follow me" waves goodbye to the rest
Kaede "........." looks at the pair of fading figures
{Something does not feel right}

Five minutes later, Rukawa stood up & headed down the path that led to the beach. Something inside his gut was not comfortable with the thought of the red head being with Amalia. The dark-haired boy followed the trail of shoe prints in the sand. Suddenly the tracks ended. Had the pair entered the forest? Was there really another holiday cabin amongst those trees? Rukawa stopped abruptly as someone called out to him.

Stranger "Hello boy, you must be Rukawa" smiles
Kaede "........." stares at the speaker
{Who are you?}
Stranger "Our boss would like to see you" explains "Would you like to come with us?"
Kaede "No" replies coldly
{Kidnappers?! What has Father done?}
Stranger 1 "I thought so" smirks "Get him! Be careful not to damage the goods!"
Kaede "Asshole!" punches one of his attackers
{Shit! ... too many of them ...}

Was there any connection between Amalia & these men? Who was their leader? What had happened to Sakuragi? The fight ended very quickly. Rukawa struggled desperately to free himself as two heavily built men held him down forcefully. His arms & back hurt with the effort. Then the boy thought of screaming for help, but it was too late. He lost consciousness after someone pressed a cloth soaked with chloroform over his nose.

Meanwhile the red head had returned with three bulging plastic bags. Miyagi stared hard at the boy. Sakuragi was smiling like a fox that had gotten into a henhouse. What had the boy been up to in the last thirty minutes? Did the fool rob that woman's refrigerator?

Ryota "Hanamichi! What have you got in those bags?" stares
Hanamichi "Ice-cream & cake!" smiles brightly
Hisashi "How much ice-cream & cake? Did you rob a supermarket on your way back?" blinks
Hanamichi "Micchy!" protests "Amalia-san gave these to me!"
Hisashi "Are you sure? Did you steal stuff from her fridge when she was not looking?" looks at Sakuragi suspiciously
Hanamichi "I AM NOT A THIEF!!!" headbutts Mitsui

Mitsui staggered a few steps backwards. Then he sat down on the ground in a daze. The third year student had almost forgotten about the red head's unorthodox way of attacking someone. Butting someone with the head was unconventional, but highly effective when one was blessed with very hard skull bone. Sakuragi Hanamichi was certainly the best fighter that he had seen in a long time. The boy winced as he looked up to see the red head smiling as he spoke with Yuki. If Mitsui had not known that the boy's birthday was on the first day of April, he would have guessed that the fellow was born somewhere between late February to the middle of March. Pisceans were supposed to be the volatile mood swingers.

Suddenly there was silence as the boy lifted the cover off the cake box. Everyone stared at the HUGE chocolate cake in morbid fascination. Ayako gulped. What was Amalia doing with such a large cake? How heavy was it? This piece of confectionary looked as if it could feed forty people! The moment of hushed observation ended as Sakuragi stuck a spoon into the cake.

Ayako "Sakuragi Hanamichi! What are you doing?" stares at the boy
Hanamichi "Eating" takes another spoonful of mudcake
Ayako "........." smacks the red head lightly "Stop! I will cut the cake"
HIsashi "Sensei, what do you want?" looks at the Coach "Ice-cream or cake?"
Anzai "If It is not too much trouble ... I want both" pats tummy happily
Hanamichi "Old man, you should not eat so much fattening food" pulls at the man's flabby chin
Takenori "........." sighs
{Sakuragi ... will you ever learn?}
Hanamichi "You will get even fatter if you are not careful" pats Anzai's rounded tummy like a basketball
Hisashi "SAKURAGI! Stop that!" tries to pull Sakuragi away
Ryota "HANAMICHI!" kicks the red head's bottom

POOOW!

There was a brief period of silence. Then everyone grinned for it had been sometime since they last saw the power packed Gori Punch. Sakuragi grumbled as he gingerly touched the steaming lump on the top of his head. Stupid Gori. Violent Gori. Gorillas should be kept in cages. Akagi's expression darkened as he heard the boy's comments.

Ayako "Where is he?" cuts a slice of cake for the red head
Hanamichi "He?" blinks "Who?"
Ayako "Where is Rukawa? He went after you" looks up
Hanamichi "No" shakes head "I did not see him"
Ayako "........." thinks "It is getting dark. Maybe you should go look for him"
Hanamichi "........." considers "That Kitsune can look after himself"
Yuki "Sakuragi is right" nods
{I have to stop this}
Ayako "Yuki. Stay out of this" glares "Sakuragi ... go look for Rukawa. I will save a huge price of cake for you"
Hanamichi "........." nods "Okay"

Yuki knew that he had to stop Sakuragi from going after Rukawa. If the red head managed to find Xavier, he knew that his plans would fail. However there was no way of stopping the boy without arousing further suspicion. He had seen the expression in Ayako's eyes. Miyagi was also looking at him oddly. Now he only hoped that Sakuragi would not be able to locate the blue-eyed boy.

Sakuragi jogged down the path that led to the beach in search of the other boy. Initial feelings of annoyance quickly faded when he could find no trace of Rukawa. Where was he? Had he vanished into the air? That was not possible. Though the red head told himself that the Kitsune was most likely to be asleep somewhere, he could not quell a growing sense of panic within his chest. Then Sakuragi caught sight of a sports sneaker that was lying on a tuff of grass at the edge of the trees. His eyes widened as he picked up the item.

Hanamichi "Kitsune" grips the shoe
{Why is this here? Where is he?! What has happened to him?!!!}

Meanwhile the owner of the shoe woke up to find himself in a most uncomfortable position. Ropes tied around his wrists & ankles were keeping him suspended several inches off the ground. As the fogged lifted from his mind, he noticed that the cords were attached a pulley-like contraption. What was going on? Why was he here? Then he caught sight of two persons. One of them walked towards him.

Amalia "Hello Kaede! Nice of you to join us" blows a ring of smoke into the air
Kaede "What have you done with Sakuragi?!" glares at her "Answer me!!!"
{I will kill you if anything happens to him!}
Amalia "Sakuragi?! That charming red-head? I have sent him back with plenty of ice-cream & cake" smiles
Kaede "Why should I believe you?" struggles
{Damn it!}
Amalia "You have no choice!" caresses his neck
Kaede "........." shudders
{Get away from me!}
Amalia "Anyway you should be worrying about yourself" licks Rukaws's neck
Kaede "STOP IT!!!" wriggles violently
{What are you trying to do?!}
Amalia "Why? Don't you find me sexy?" smirks
Kaede "........." looks away
{Are you mad?}
Amalia "Oh well ... you will" plunges a syringe into Rukawa's arm & injects the contents

As soon as the contents of the syringe emptied, the woman pulled the needle out of his arm. Judging by the swiftness of her actions, it was obvious that she was quite experienced with such things. What had she injected into him? Poison? Had the woman been hired by his Father's enemies? Rukawa shivered involuntarily. He hoped that Amalia had not been lying about Sakuragi being safe. Then he saw the other person's features as the man approached him. The man said nothing to the boy for several minutes. What was he waiting for? All of a sudden, he reached out to touch the blue-eyed boy.

Xavier "I am Xavier" touches the boy's heated cheeks "How are you feeling?"
Kaede "Stay away from me" turns head
{I feel strange ...}
Xavier "I will be your master" grabs a handful of Rukawa's hair "Look at me"
Kaede "Do not touch me!" glares
{I feel sick ...}
Xavier "Touch you?" smirks "I will do more than touch you"
Kaede "........." frowns
{No ...}

The man gave a hint of what was to come by thrusting his hardness against the boy's crotch as his hand caressed him. Rukawa shook his head mutely as he finally understood Xavier's intentions. No. No. No. He did not want this man's hand to touch him. He did not want this man's tongue to caress him. He did not want this man hardness to rape him. No. No. No.

Kaede "Fuck you! Do not touch me!!!" yells at Xavier
{I do not want you}
Xavier "Fuck me?" laughs "No ... I will fuck you"
Kaede "No ..." shakes head
{I do not want you}
Xavier "Do you know that I like spirited boys?" smirks "You will scream for me, won't you?"
Kaede "No ..." shivers
{I do not want you}
Xavier "If you are a good bitch" points to a guy with a video camera "I will even let you have a copy of the tape"
Kaede "NO!!!!" tries to struggles but finds his thoughts weakening
{What is happening to me? ... warm all over}

This was not real. This was not happening. This was a nightmare. Rukawa watched as the man took a blade & sniffed at it. Then he started to cut pieces of material away from the boy's clothing. NO! NO! NO! The boy trembled as the man took his time to lick every bit of exposed skin as he progressed. I DO NOT WANT HIM! I DO NOT WANT THIS MAN! Rukawa mentally screamed as he looked at the man with silver grey eyes. HANAMICHI! I WANT HIM TO BE HANAMICHI! HE HAS TO BE HANAMICHI!

Xavier "Pretty boy" presses the blade against the boy's nipple
Kaede "Ah ..." flinches away from the cold metal
Xavier "You will want this" sucks upon Rukawa's neck "You will want me"
Kaede "Hana ..." moans

Rukawa did not want to feel, but he could feel the rising desire. Rukawa did not want to lose, but he knew that his mind was fighting a losing battle. The boy could feel the rush of blood towards his groin. Heat. Want. The boy moaned softly as the man rubbed his sex organ. Desire. Need. The boy gasped as the man bit his nipple.

Xavier "Amalia" looks at the woman "How much Crystal is in him?"
Amalia "Enough for the rest of the night" rubs her womanhood "Is it my turn yet?"
Xavier "Patience dear" rubs Rukawa's hardening rod "Enjoy the show"
Kaede "Nooo ... aaahhh" thrusts upwards against the touch
Xavier "I will rape you ... & you will enjoy it" squeezes Rukawa firm buttocks with both hands
Kaede "Oooh ... Hana ... please" whimpers with desire
Xavier "Do you want more?" rubs his erection against Rukawa's cock "Say 'please' ..."
Kaede "AHHH! HANA! ..." screams with frustration

Delusion. The boy was trying to convince himself that the other person was not a stranger. SAKURAGI. SAKURAGI HANAMICHI. HE IS SAKURAGI HANAMICHI. Rukawa told himself that the red head was touching him. Rukawa told himself that the red head was exploring him. Rukawa told himself that he would soon be physically joined with the red head. Tears ran down his flushed cheeks as he repeatedly lied to himself.
